This blog is about life with my husband who was diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer's and Frontal Lobe Dementia in 2008. He was 64 at the time although now, knowing more about the disease, Alzheimer's was present many, many years ago, which is why early detection is so important. As you read the blog the character "Al" that I created in 2008, represents the way that Alzheimer's is invading our daily lives.
There is an archive tab further down the page that starts from the beginning of our journey.

Living with Bob and "Al"

Still to cold in the frozen tundra to do much of anything. Bob wanted to do a puzzle, Sheri thought that was a great idea too.  :) 3 hours later still working on the 36 piece puzzle "Al" says "There is no way in hell all the pieces are here, it is just not gonna happen" Sheri chuckled to herself, but at least it gave her time to do some indoor photography. ( But she really should have been cleaning house)
Oh but Bob, please to talk to "Al" about his language :)

  2. We are Impatiently waiting for warmer weather too. Just when I start seeing my tulips coming up- we are buried in snow again and the windchills are much below zero.. "My Bob" did offer to Dig my tulips up and bring them in if I was worried about them thou- LOL. That's a very pretty picture! What camera and lens are you using?

    1. lori, so sorry about your tulips :( But that was a sweet gesture from your Bob. I use a Cannon 60D it was taken with the standard kit lens, When I hit 20 years with my last employer I got to choose a gift from a catalog, the camera is what I chose, had never really taken a picture before that. What a blessing it turned out to be. :) The photo has post processing done in PS Elements.
